CSC 148 Entry 11
Ahh, here we are again in a familiar position. Similar to last term when I had to write about slogs in 165. It's sad to see that the course is over already. I find that I enjoy all my computer science courses the most. Perhaps, that's why I decided to try and do a specialist. When I look back at the past challenges which I have encountered I do not think they are as hard as they are. That opinion might be biased but it's a valid thought. I feel like I have grown this past semester over this course.
The big take away in the material I have learned would be recursion and various data structures such as trees, linked lists, binary search trees and a lot of different techniques of implementation. I found that I actually enjoyed all of the assignments. I was sort of disappointed with the last assignment because professor heap originally said that we might implement chess and possibly a chess AI. I was quite intrigued with this challenge.
The biggest conceptual hurtle I had was wrapping my head around recursion but eventually through the shear amount of problems encountered I am very glad I went through the trials and tribulations to understand recursion. I can really envision me 10 years from now in my office thinking about first year in university. And I would nod to myself and say one word recursion.
